Early in the morning, Zhang Xuan took a long day of research and finally wrote a recital of Lu to the court, and sure enough, this recital scolded the ministers for being incomplete. Originally, Jiang Mian, Mao Ji and others in the cabinet were ready to obey Zhu Houxi's wishes, after all, after so long, even Yang Tinghe was in the opposition, and if the trouble continued, it would be bad to completely tear the skin and make you live and die endlessly, and if Yang Tinghe retired, no one would dare to openly call the emperor in front of the gong.

Later, because of Zhang Xuan's constant remarks, Jiang Mian and Mao Ji also left the cabinet one after another a month after Yang Ting and Zhishi, and together they told the old man to return to his hometown.

There are not many old people in the cabinet, and the current first assistant Fei Hong can be regarded as one, in fact, many people in Fei Hong's place say that they are for the country and the people, and insist on sharing worries for the country, and most courtiers can settle down when they see that there are still old ministers. At first, Fei Hong wanted to take the opportunity to monopolize power, at least to be the second Yang Tinghe, but soon he found that he didn't have the ability, and the current situation did not allow him to do so, so Fei Hong also wanted to leave.

It is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, Zhu Houxi clearly realized that if Fei Hong also left, there would definitely be people who would say that he was arbitrary and forced away the old heroes of the imperial court, and the old ministers couldn't bear to see the absurdity of the country, so they all left the cabinet. And once Fei Hong is also gone, at least half of the hundreds of officials will follow suit and ask for resignation, and literati sometimes pay attention to this, and regard this kind of thing as a kind of Qingtian loyalty that can be famous and passed on for generations.

Once such an atmosphere is formed, the consequences will be unimaginable, the country will be stagnant because there are no officials available, and all the work will be pressed on the supreme authority, Emperor Zhu Houxi.

Zhu Houxi has a few catties and a few taels, and he knows it well. If you want to learn from your ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang to take on the work of hundreds of officials alone, you can't learn it. Therefore, Zhu Houxi met Fei Hong in private and ordered Fei Hong to stay in the court. Otherwise, he will definitely find a crime to kill his family. So Fei Hong reluctantly became the fig leaf of Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, and he was also a few years old, which was really aggrieved.

Since Fei Hong is so reluctant, then don't expect him to do his best, at least don't expect him to have any attitude on the matter of the Great Rites, whoever says it is right, whoever says it is good. I have no point of view and no idea, I'm just a wall-to-wall grass that falls with the wind. You love to make a fuss. Fei Hong's heart hated the so-called big gift or big gift, otherwise he wouldn't be so aggrieved, but he wanted to snicker again, because something happened soon. The initiator of the matter is the son of Yang Tinghe. Zhengde's six-year champion, Yang Shen!

Yang Shen is a talented man, when his father was in the cabinet, he won the top prize, but no one said that there was a mastermind behind the scenes, because everyone knew Yang Shen's ability and his true talent. And Yang Shen is also the champion, so he did the revision of the Hanlin Academy. This is a promising job, and if you do it well, you will soon become a bachelor of Hallym Academy. and then become a squire in a certain department, which has the qualification to enter the cabinet as a university scholar.

With Yang Shen's qualifications and intelligence, as well as his father Yang Tinghe's status, if Yang Shen continues to do it honestly, he may be able to achieve a book in the six ministries, and he and his father are in charge of the six ministries and the same cabinet, and there is a good story through the ages. It's a pity that the resignation of Yang Ting and Zhishi ended this good story.

Besides, Yang Shen seems to be quiet and quiet, he should be a clever and flexible person, but he is actually an upright bull temper. Yang Shen has been like this all his life, and his slow promotion is also related to his character. During the Zhengde period, there were natural and man-made disasters, Yang Shen's mother died, and Yang Shending was worried for several years. As a result, as soon as he returned to Beijing to resume his post, he was outspoken, and the emperor at that time, Zhu Houzhao, marched to Juyongguan to work hard and lose money, and then started the war again, and the result was naturally the result of being forced to go home from illness, which is the legendary recuperation. Yang Shen was fortunate enough to be fashionable for a while, so his official position is still in the compilation of the Hanlin Academy.

Even so, Yang Shen is still quite prestigious in the court, first of all, he is a Shu Jishi, in the era of only high schooling, the difference between ordinary Jinshi and Shu Jishi is very big, regardless of the official position, Confucianism has another set of rules, such as on your actions in a year, whether it is a first-class, second-class or third-class, whether it is a Shujishi, a first-class is commonly known as the champion list of the eyes of Tanhua, these three people are not surprisingly Shujishi. Therefore, even if the official position is higher than others, when you learn that others are better than yours in the exam, after performing the officialdom ceremony, you have to give a salute to the top student of the same year, or the senior brother of the previous year.

Secondly, because Yang Shen is the son of Yang Tinghe, and Yang Tinghe is the soul of these courtiers.

Although Yang Shen was upright, he was not an idiot, he knew very well that without the support of the emperor, he would not be able to do anything with the inactive cabinet chief assistant Fei Hong, the Hanlin editor of his own official position, and the civil ministers in the imperial court. As long as someone upholds the emperor's ideas, the emperor will support him infinitely, and he can't fight no matter how he fights. My father's glorious era has passed, and he is about to write a new era, an era of civil violence.

Yang Shen is thirty-six years old, it is said that he has long passed the impulsive years, and he has read some four books and five classics since he was a child, although he yearns for the life of Jin Ge Iron Horse, even if he is upright and outspoken, he loves to fight injustice, but after all, he uses his pen to open his mouth, and the upper lip touches the lower lip, not to beat people or anything.

But since he met Lu Bing, he doesn't think so, who said that literati can't learn martial arts, Lu Bing is such a martial artist is brilliant, is it possible that learning martial arts is more difficult than learning literature? Lu Bing's rolling Yangtze River is still in his ears, Yang Shen is ready, and when he turns around, he informs Lu Bing and writes this poem into his book.

Yang Shen is so old, he is naturally embarrassed to ask any martial artist to teach him, and he is even more embarrassed to ask Lu Bing, who is more than ten years younger than him, for fear that he will not be able to learn or will be ridiculed if he can't learn well. Besides, if a literati suddenly wants to learn martial arts, anyone will feel a little unreliable, even a little ridiculous.

Therefore, Yang Shen was at home every day, smelling chickens and dancing, exercising every day, and asking Lu Bing a few tricks intentionally or unintentionally, lest Lu Bing suspect that he wanted to learn martial arts. But what Lu Bing learned were all tricks against the sky. Where can Yang Shen learn this literati, but Lu Bing is not too careful, a Yang Shen is just for exercise. Therefore, teaching Yang Shen some simpler exercise methods has achieved the effect of strengthening the body. For example, push-ups and sit-ups, plus ancient training methods: lifting stones, locks, throwing iron cables, tying sandbags, and so on.

Yang Shen practiced seriously, and after a few days of practice, he achieved results, and his strength was really greater than before, and he was much more flexible, plus running, etc. Run fast and jump far. Once people have made significant progress, they will inevitably be a little complacent, especially in areas that they are not familiar with. I don't know the height of the sky, and the thickness of the earth is quite the spirit of the newborn calf who is not afraid of the tiger.

No matter how high Yang Shen's IQ is, it is inevitable that he will be out of the ordinary, so now he is full of confidence, and he wants to compare with any person on the street. If it continues to develop at this pace, it will be difficult for Yang Shen to become a martial arts master. After all, the basic skills are not solid enough. It's a little too late to start, unless you learn a world-famous skill like "Sunflower Treasure Book" against the sky, or be taken away by aliens, and instantly become a superman with a combat power of five hundred and five from a scum with a combat power of five.

Although it is difficult to become a master, Yang Shen is physically fit and stronger than ordinary people, and it is no problem to become a generation of martial arts idiots. But Yang Shenzhi is not here, he doesn't want to practice strong martial arts. All he wanted to do was kill someone. The thief captures the king first, and the man shoots the horse first. So he wanted to kill the leaders of the gang of opponents of the courtiers, Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao.

Once Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao are removed, no one will dare to help Zhu Houxi, and if there is no minister's proposal at that time, Zhu Houyu will not make a strategic suggestion by himself and then agree with it, wouldn't it be a big joke in the world.

At the same time, this can also warn future generations that the killed Zhang Xuan Guicao is an example, not to let others substitute for him become an unsightly courtier, of course, the concept of this courtier is Yang Shen's own opinion. In other words, as long as Zhang Xuan and Gui Cao are killed, it will be an example to kill chickens and monkeys, and we will kill whoever supports Zhu Houxi in the future.

In fact, if Lu Bing were to do this matter, Lu Bing would choose the strategy of beating the stuffy stick, find someone who doesn't know the ghost at night, sneak into the house of two people and kill the two, or find a night when the night is dark and windy to intercept and kill on the road. If it is difficult to move on the guards, find two dead soldiers and stab them in the street during the day, and now with this medical condition, as soon as you get tetanus, you will not be far from death. When the time comes, the dead man is a scapegoat, he appeases the family of the dead man, and he has nothing to do with himself, the emperor holds himself accountable, he does not admit it, confesses to sit in a lenient prison, and resists to go home for the New Year. This kind of behavior is ruthless and vicious, insidious and sinister, this is Lu Bing's way of doing things.

But Yang Shen is a scholar after all, he is not willing to be like Lu Bing who only pays attention to the result and does not pay attention to the process, he wants to fight above board, and you are speechless, he wants to shock the hearts of the courtiers, not to intimidate those courtiers who tend to be inflammatory, kill people, and make them afraid from the heart, what they are afraid of is justice rather than violence. Yang Shen clenched his fists and roared angrily in his heart: I am going to beat the emperor and kill people under the emperor's nose!

Yang Shen is not crazy, but there is indeed such a good place where you can kill people without paying for your life, and this place is Zuo Shunmen. is no stranger to Zhang Xuan of Zuo Shunmen, Lu Bing gave him a trick back then, and he delivered his second letter "Great Gift or Question" in Zuo Shunmen's General Affairs Department. And Zuo Shunmen has a long history, and the role of this place is prepared for him to kill people in Yang Shen's opinion.

Zuo Shunmen was built in the eighteenth year of Yongle, that is, when Zhu Di was in power, it was named Zuo Shunmen at that time, and the name has not been changed to this day. Seventy-five years ago, during the Orthodox years, there was a bloody murder here. At that time, the eunuch Wang Zhen party and government, because of jealousy and arrogance, wrongly guided the emperor Zhu Qizhen to drive the expedition, and after improper preparation, he experienced a series of wrong commands and changes of route, and finally the wrong process led to a major military tragedy in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the occurrence of the Tumubao Incident.

The Tumubao incident led to the loss of the country's elite, and only reserves and privates remained in the three major battalions of the capital, and even the emperor Zhu Qizhen was captured, and the Jingtai Emperor Zhu Qiyu was the imperial brother at that time, temporarily taking the throne. The ministers hated Wang Zhen, so they attacked Wang Zhen's Yu Dang, saying that the emotional place couldn't help but add fists and kicks, and killed Ma Shun, the commander of Jinyi Guard, at Zuo Shun Gate, and also killed Wang Zhen's other Yu Dang Mao Gui and Wang Changsui, and hung the corpse outside Dong'an Gate.

Since then, Zuo Shunmen has become a sacred place, a gathering place for loyal ministers and righteous sons, and anyone who has a traitor in the court can be killed here, and the criminal department will not pursue it. Of course, it's not okay to leave Zuo Shunmen, and at the same time, this is just a saying, most of the people in the last dynasty are scholars, who will really kill people? Just imagine, after the controversy broke out among the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, some people said that you are treacherous, you wait for me, I will go to Zuoshunmen to kill you, etc., don't you become a ruffian hooligan, how can there be the shadow of the pillar of the country's civil ministers. Therefore, at the beginning of Zuoshunmen, as a tradition and holy place, no one would have thought that anyone would dare to really do it here again and kill the ministers of the court.

But of course someone will, Yang Shen had already planned to kill someone in Zuoshunmen. (To be continued......)
